Guatemala has agreed to accept migrants being deported from the United States under a “safe third country” agreement announced by President Bernardo Arevalo after meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The agreement will see deportees returned to their home countries at U.S. expense. Immigration has been a major focus of Rubio’s foreign trip to Central America, with a similar agreement announced in El Salvador, which includes an offer to accept American citizens jailed in the U.S. for violent crimes. This move reflects the Trump administration’s priority on immigration issues and marks a significant development in U.S.-Central America relations. The agreements aim to address the growing numbers of migrants seeking entry into the United States and provide a mechanism for orderly deportations while also offering assistance to those in need. Rubio’s tour highlights the importance of regional cooperation on immigration and border security issues.
